Both theoretically informed and empirically rich, Youth Urban Worlds explores how urban cultures affect political action amongst youth.

  • Theorizes that aesthetics are an increasingly crucial form of political action in the contemporary urban setting and explains the impact of aesthetics on the political
  • Examines the centrality of fun, warmth, aesthetics, and embodiment to these youth's experience of being in the world
  • Explains how youth are able to practically and concretely impact the political process through the performance of risky and disruptive behavior
